Legal troubles for former Houston hand surgeon Michael Brown are piling up, with matters pending in criminal, family and bankruptcy courts.

A Harris County court has found him in contempt again, this time for failing to let a court official inspect his house in Miami Beach.

Brown also claims in court filings that the "chief restructuring officer" in charge of his money during a bankruptcy proceeding has failed to provide him the $45,000 a month he needs for living expenses.

A hearing on the June 28 ruling that found him in contempt has been reset for July 30 in Harris County's 309th State District Court, postoned from its initial date of July 16.

Depending upon the hearing outcome, Brown could see up to 30 days in the Harris County Jail, according to court documents. In March, he served nearly a month of a 180-day sentence on an earlier contempt-of-court finding.

The hearing on the contempt-of-court finding was postponed so Brown could keep his July 16 date in U.S. District Court in Miami, where he pleaded guilty to interfering with a flight attendant on a Jan. 2 flight from London to Miami. His sentencing in that case is set for Sept. 25.

The problem is, the federal bankruptcy court in Florida had already postponed until July 30 a hearing on Brown's emergency motion to enforce the terms of the chief restructing officer, or CRO, agreement. The agreement pertains to administering the financial affairs of Brown's businesses known collectively as the Brown Entities.

Brown's wife, Rachel Brown, who is also described in court documents as one of his creditors, has asked the court to change the date of the rescheduled July 30 hearing.

In his emergency motion filed July 12 in Miami, Brown stated that the restructuring officer had not provided his monthly $45,000 in living expenses for March, April and July.

"Further, Dr. Brown had to use his June monthly living expenses for legal expenses," the motion states.

The motion also alleges that the restructuring officer failed to provide requested financial reports.

"In fact, the CRO has stood idly by while Dr. Brown's rights have been trampled here in Florida through the Texas divorce proceedings, and apparently has no intention of defending the Brown Entities' interests in imminent emergency proceedings in Texas, which seek sale of all of Dr. Brown's personal assets in Florida and further seek Dr. Brown's incarceration," the motion states.

In response to the restructuring officer's request, Brown agreed in late June to the sale of 14 "luxury collectible cars" and one motorcycle to cover the company payroll and other expenses, including $90,000 for Brown's June and July living expenses, court documents state.

Despite making payroll, the CRO did not pay Brown's living expenses or legal expenses, the July 12 emergency motion states.

Further, the CRO has not fulfilled the requirement to maintain at least one residence and one boat for Brown, the motion alleges.

"As a result, his residence and boat are in disrepair," the motion states.
